Default just a quick question with my new intake

i have a 04 civic lx a/t ya i no anyways i installed an aem sri with my friend

it was a bit tough to make everything fit and in the end the pipe connected to the throttle body is real high (prob cant even install my new strut bars comming in today ) and when i close it i think its hitting my hood, my friend said i shud add some thing to protect it or w.e

anyways im a total noob and im wondering if that will end up being tragic if i dont fix it

also the sensor was hard to get to fit >< however i love this intake the power and sound is awsome

i know i got the right ones, it looks just like it did in the instructions too, its just i dont no why but we had trouble pushing it down n ****

btw is there ANY way for me to still install my struts, right now they just hover over the intake :' ( i feel like i wasted money ><

i wud upload pics but i have no camaera sorry

edit: is there any shorter sri for my car, this one was a 2 piece and i wud rather have one of those that is just like 1 short piece and super easier to install

i may just buy a new one and i guess sell this SOMEDAY T_T

i realllly want my struts installed lol

you are talking about a strut tower bar, not the struts themselves....

I think you have a cold air intake not a short ram intake because you said it is a two peice.

its a short ram tho the instruction booklet says, and the pics r the same
its like a regular short one but it curves up and down to make room

It looks like you need to flip the second pipe. Like put theside that you have the filter onto the pipe and the side that is connected to the pipe to the filter.

the instructions said put the filter on the longer end of the j tube

that isnt the park my hood is hitting anyways, its the part connected to the throttle body. kind of the most visible part of my pic because of the shine/glare

when i close my hood and i take a peek while closing it comes so close that i cant even tell if my lid closes on it


random question: when should an intake whistle cuz mine never whistles but it roars.

My intake whistles when it is sucking in air at idle.
